I hadnt saw everybdoy in the state play, I know that. But I have saw alot of people in west TN play and besides maybe Willie Kemp, Ramon Williams at Jackson North Side is the best PG in west TN and has too be one of the best in the state, and without a doubt he is the most UNDERRATED player in the state, I dont care what anybdoy says. He should prove hisself at state this year, this will really be his first oppurtunity to shine in front of a big crowd.

I'll have to agree with you JcmJeff. The thing that impresses me the most about Ramon Williams is his unselfishness. He could easily score 25 a game, but he shares the ball with his team. He is very exciting to watch with his ball handling wizardry :angry: . He is about to give the fans a treat next week!! I think everyone will know his name after the Glencliff game.

I have to agree; yet Bubba Taylor from Maplewood may be as good or better.

 

Sean Bridges from Hillsboro, hands down.

First off Bubba Taylor doesnt compare with Henry Harris. Second, Sean Bridges hands down??? Are you kidding me, its an honor for Henry Harris to have his name put up there with the likes of Kellen Pickel and Willie Kemp. But Bridges?? I mean dont get me wrong here he is a solid player, but youre talking about some serious company here. You seem to have changed your mind 3 times but I will put them in order for you 1. Harris 2. Taylor 3. Bridges.

Caleb Skogen. He can hit the three, drive and finish, and make his free throws. He's also probably the best ball handler I've ever seen and he's still a junior.

Dont fool yourself man, Skogen is a very good 1A player but you should get out and watch some AAA ball. Skogen wasnt even the best PG in 1A, that would have to go to Daniel Puckett who had to run PG all season because no one else on his team could get the ball down court. I got to see Henry Harris play a bunch of times this year and Skogen wouldnt want any part of him.

No one in the state can possibly be better than MLK's Johnny Lee. There may be some as good good but no way they are better. Johnny is the most complete high school point guard I've seen in a long time. He does whatever his team needs him to do to win. Whether that be score 25-30 pts dish out 10-12 assists defend the best player for the opposing team. The kid has no weaknesses in his game. He is lightning quick, he handles the ball like its on a string, he has no weak hand he can go right or left equally as well, and at 5'7' he's got hops. Like i said no way anyone in the state is better maybe as good but not better. Everyone is in for a treat getting to watch him in the state tournament next week. That is if Doc lets him play and doesn't hold the ball, which Johnny can do by himself, he is a one man stall game. You can't get close enogh to get a 5 count or he'll blow by you then back it right back out and dare you to come within 6 ft of him.

    • I've always been a football fan first and then if you have a band that's awesome.No question that DB has one of the best bands in the country and the whole region should attend at least one DB game just to see their band. I don't know if Nick Saban could come to Kingsport and build a football program that could match the Dobyns Bennett band's success.That said,as mentioned before, a couple of things would have to change in order for the Tribe to just win a state championship on the field.Besides a program that starts from the peewee teams and goes all the way to J Fred with all coaches and weight training { in time }on the same page. Sometimes it also takes a little luck like the 1998 Vols .There are a lot of great athletes at a lot of big schools around the state and just because you want something doesn't mean your going to build a program like Alcoa has. Yes,start at the bottom and have guys that are quality coaches teaching at every level is 100% the first step. Parents can make it a lot easier by getting their young athletes into an early start with conditioning and weights as well when they are old enough to lift.If your son is a man in the weight room before he gets to DB , then it won't take a "Dobbs" coach to make him competitive against other schools athletes when it comes to strength.

    • A complete cultural change happened at Greeneville and the administration and community opened up their checkbooks.  What a lot of people don't know is Ballard was Zeller's OC for many years and stopped coaching for two years because Zeller and Ballard didn't see eye to eye on some things.  Zeller lead Greeneville to it's first ever Semi Final appearance in 2000 and lost 28-12 at Maryville and had them in the Quarter Finals in 2002 and 2003.  Z was a great coach but lost some control when it came to making workouts mandatory. (He learned from that Mistake and it was at LC when i coached with him.).  Z was let go going into my Senior Year and was replaced by Steve McCurry who was the one that turned the program around.  Steve had won a 4a state championship at AC Reynolds in Asheville and made the administration completely redo the weight room with new equipment, had a football period at the end of the school day to lift, started devil camp, and brought in coaches like Danny Bentley (Still the OL coach), Ballard as the OC, Cody Baugh (QB coach and still there), and even Spradlen who is Greeneville's head coach now as the DB's Coach.  McCurry only coached for two seasons at Greeneville and took a team that had a losing record the year before and finished my Senior Year making it to the Quarters and having a 10-3 record and then followed it up with a Semi Final appearance the next year with an 11-3 record and back to back conference championships.  Loved McCurry to death but the recession hit and the story i heard was he was still buying new equipment for the team that the Principal didn't authorize and his response was "I don't answer to you and only to Niswonger and Bewley" (Two huge donors).  That was it for him and they Promoted Ballard shortly after that.   Greeneville had always been relevant ever since the the late 70's under Coach Fred Sorrell's.  Since Sorrell's took over in 1977 Greeneville overall winning percentage is over 76%.  The biggest reason people might not have thought Greeneville was "Good" until Ballard was Greeneville always played up Classification wise and could never get over the hump. (When there were 3 classifications we played 3a, when it went to 5 we played 4a).  Greeneville is the largest its ever been with 953 students and where playing teams 2 or 3 times there size back in the day (I had a little over 800 kids in the school when i graduated in 2008).  Other teams always would know they would be sore after a game but depth took over and never won a Championship until Greeneville played in the classification the TSSAA actually assigned them. You had names like Dustin Moore (1993 Mr Football for 3a and who Phillip Fulmer said was one of the greatest athletes he ever recruited), James "Mud Turtle" Mayes, Brigham Lyons, Byron Gillespie, Frankie Debusk (National Champion Qb at Furman with GQ), Jasmine Lowery, Cody Baugh, The Greenway Brothers, Joe Watson (Furman), etc.  Now the cultural is from the Pee Wee league up and you grow up as a young kid wanting to wear the Greene and White.  Here is a really good link when it comes to anything Greeneville Football related. https://greenevillefootball.com/   I also don't coach anymore.  Z told me i was to smart with how the school systems are ran these days and ended up going into real estate in Knoxville which has been a great decision for my life.
    • Yes, they will. I'm wondering what kinds of strides Sale Creek will make heading into the second season under Coach Fitz.
    • No yellow stripes on the rug last night. Biggest crowd I’ve seen at 825 since the alco debacle.
